VDNKh: A place where you can find everything...

VDNKh is a vast area with pavilions, fountains, and gardens everywhere, offering visitors a journey through time and space. Its grand fountains, themed pavilions, modern attractions, and unique exhibitions are harmoniously integrated here. One of the most eye-catching new attractions in the Moscow National Park is the "Sun of Moscow"—a giant Ferris wheel that is 140 meters high. Here, you can enjoy the charming scenery of Moscow and see iconic buildings such as the Kremlin and Ostankino Tower. The Ferris wheel has become a true symbol of the exhibition center, especially at dusk, it is an ideal place for panoramic enthusiasts. The historical part of VDNKh is also impressive. The center of the building complex has famous fountains, such as the legendary Friendship of Peoples Fountain. It was built in 1954 and is decorated with gilded girl images representing the Soviet Union's member republics. It is a symbol of the unity and cultural diversity of the Soviet people and still attracts tourists. Next to it is the "Stone Flower" fountain, inspired by Ural fairy tales, decorated with colorful mosaic patterns of VDNKh. The Space Pavilion is particularly noteworthy, where you can learn about the unique collection of space exploration history. Here, you can see real spacecraft, spacesuits, models, and exhibits telling the victory of Soviet space flight. The exhibition gives you the opportunity to learn more about the great discoveries related to space exploration. VDNKh is also famous for its themed pavilions, and each republic of the former Soviet Union has shown its achievements here. The "Belarus Pavilion", "Ukraine Pavilion", "Armenia Pavilion", etc. are still masterpieces of Soviet architecture, reflecting the culture and national traditions of these regions. Visiting VDNKh not only allows you to understand Soviet history, but also enjoy nature. Next to the "Agriculture" pavilion is a picturesque "Inspiration" garden where you can relax in flower beds and alleys. In summer, the park will become a blooming oasis; in winter, one of the largest skating rinks in Moscow will open here. In the evening, bright lights will light up here, creating a festive atmosphere. VDNKh (All-Russian Exhibition Center) Space Pavilion
